Re: btrfs and raid1 (restore)

Now that we know the facts, what is the problem? Some simple questions first;
Is the data still accessible?
What did the rebalance do?
Output of btrfsck/dmesg?
mkfs.vfat does not write much on disk so if the rebalance was also
made before the mkfs I guess most data is still present.
